Ok, so I am in the market for a new mil-surp, and am torn between a Yugo M24/47 or a Mosin M91/30. The ones I am specifically looking at are similarly priced. The M24/47's handguard is cracked (but according to the seller, has been glued together and does not affect functionality), whereas the...

Ok, so recently the girlfriend and I started shooting trap. We both like it a lot, and plan to continue going in the future. Up until now, she has been shooting either my 12ga 870 Wingmaster with 30" VR barrel, or my 20ga H&R Handi-Rifle. The 870 seems too long for her, the H&R is way too short...

Okay, so I posted a thread asking about the M&P and M-14 about a week ago, and got some varied responses. So, I go to a different gunshop today and see that they have a 6" 19-4 in fairly good condition. There is some blueing wear on the frame above the wood target grips, but nothing really...

Ok so I am going to take up reloading, and am starting off with .38spl 148gr WC's and possibly 158gr SWC's. I already have a GP-100 6" that I can shoot them out of, but I want/need a .38spl only gun. While the GP-100 is accurate, tames what little recoil they have, and shoots them just fine, I...

Ok, so I know I posted something here a while back concerning getting started in reloading. Since then, I've read a lot on the subject, bought and read "Metallic Cartridge Reloading", and have a much better idea of the whole process. I was initially going to get some single stage press setup...

Hello all. I have a 6" GP-100 blued, half-lug that I've recently been having a problem with. Before developing this problem, I had been shooting some Armscor ammo, which I admit is a bit on the dirty side, but I've shot some before with little to no ill-effect. Anyways, it seems like the...

I've had a hankering for a single action for a while now, and before the New Vaquero was released, I was pretty sure it was going to be a USFA Rodeo. How, however, with the New Vaquero being really similar in size, and price (my local prices are something like $570 for the Rodeo, and $500 for...

I know I asked some questions about the 11-48 a few months back when I was shopping for my first shotgun, but ended up finding an 870 for a good price and got that instead. However, a guy at my local range is now selling his model 48 for a really good price, but the one caveat being that it...

I started a thread about a week ago asking for info on a Remington 11-48 and got a few replies, and while they said the 48 was a pretty good gun, it seemed like I would have been better served by another gun. After reading a bunch of threads, I settled on the 870. Fortunately for me, I was on...

Remington 11-48 Questions Hello all. I am looking into getting my first shotgun (shot my first one today, actually, a 12ga Mossberg 500 w/ 18.5-20" barrel), and am looking for a relatively inexpensive used one. I checked out my local gun shops and found a Remingon 48 semi-auto with 30" barrel...

Hey everyone, I just bought a M10-7 2" RB today for $239.95 in Sacramento, which seemed like an ok price. I did have some questions about this, however, since it's not only my first S&W, but my first 'older' gun. First of all, what does the -7 designate? I know the numbers after the dashes are...

Hey, I'm sure there have been hundreds of these threads before, but here goes anyhow. I want to put together a really basic kit for reloading a couple of different handgun rounds, and was wondering how it'd work out. Here is what I plan on getting: Lee Hand Press ($19.99 for just the press...

Hey, wanted to start off by saying hello to all in this forum. I've been browsing it for a while trying to get as much info. as I could concerning my first revolver purchase. I just got into firearms VERY recently, last summer actually, and my only handgun at the time is a Springfield 1911A1. I...
